The starting point is a requirement by apiman as a way to manage 
throttling/quotas. Currently their requirement is not particularly 
strict (i.e. synchronous), but they would like the ability to reset a 
counter and possibly to receive an event when a certain threshold is 
reached.

Obviously we'd like to cater to more use-cases, so the design should 
take that into account.
